Do I need any surfing experience to join?

No prior experience is needed. The beginner lessons start on the sand with the fundamentals — stance, balance, and falling safely — before you move into the water.

How do I arrange the free transfer?

Free transfers from Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, Jimbaran, Sanur, and Nusa Dua are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Contact the operator directly after your booking is confirmed to arrange pick-up.

Can I book a lesson if I have a medical condition?

Participants must be physically fit and in good health. If you have a condition such as diabetes, epilepsy, asthma, a heart condition, a recent injury, hearing or visual impairment, or are pregnant, you must inform the operator at the time of booking confirmation.

Is a Japanese-speaking instructor available?

Yes, Japanese-speaking instructors can be requested, though availability is not guaranteed. Mention this requirement when you confirm your booking.

What is the difference between the private, semi-private, and group lessons?

A private lesson gives you one-on-one time with an instructor for the most personalised coaching. A semi-private lesson is shared between a small number of participants — ideal for couples or friends. A group lesson is the most social format and suits those happy to learn alongside others.
